[leezhunyuen]

Hey EVERYONE!
1st of all..i would like to share about how do thieves steal things in the public.As i am a victim today.I am a student who studies at Pj college.And after my class,i would head over 2 the bustop @ Asia Jaya(which heads back 2 subang).And wad happened was.the bustop was kinda crowded while i was waitin 4 bus.N suddenly dere is a indonesian guy suddenly pulled my feet(my long pants) saying LIPAN!LIPAN!LIPAN!(based on d slang of d guy,itz a indonesian).then i just looked down and then quickly kicked off his hands frm my pants.So he fled off in a Rapid Kl BUS which had just only aririved.I didn,t even realize that he stole my phone frm my pocket until i touched my pocket.By d time i touch my pocket,d bus got away already.So i told the crowd there 2 b precausious,as they thought that d guy was crazy.Itz such n expected thing.I dunno if it was a hypnotized tactic involved.As nt much ppl realized it.The whole thing happened in jz less den minutes.N i did nt even get 2 c who is d guy.So pls spread around.I was so lucky tht he stole my phone.nt my wallet which contains I.C.Which needs 2 go through a whole load of precedures n hectic to get a replacement.Thx 4 ur kind attention.

Wow.. that's terrible.

BTW, I hope you can use more proper English rather than using SMS language.

I think that it is good that we people sharing their experiences and reporting crime here.

It really does not matter if proper English is used, in fact we would welcome that you post in BM if you feel more comfortable with it. The important thing is that the message is put across.

I got this email sometime back, you decide if proper English is the most important when trying to put a message across:

Can U read this?

So, please do not feel put off if you think that your English is not that good.

The only crime here is the usage of SMS English.

[robertec]

It is definitely not a crime to use SMS language here.

It would really be a shame if residents shyed away because they imagine that forumers will criticise them for grammar, spelling mistakes etc..

Let's move on.

It seems this has gone one step up form doing it in a crowded bus with a gang to at the bus stand. Boy is this news! Sorry to hear about your misfortune, but thanks for sharing.
